Pick the month before the day
Perth's sampled golden window runs from about 47 min in March to 54 min in June. Sunset moves 55° along the horizon between December (242° WSW) and June (297° WNW), so a spot framed for one season can face away from the light in another. Day length spans 10 hr 4 min in June to 14 hr 13 min in December.

Find the months when sunset faces your spot
Pick the direction your subject faces the sky. Months whose sunset lands within ±10° light up in the table above. Disabled shortcuts have no matching row in this visible mid-month sample.
Each row samples the 15th of the month at these coordinates, so dates near a month boundary can differ from the printed row — around here day length moves up to ~2 min per day in the fastest season. Clock times follow Australia · Perth, including any daylight-saving change.

The moon over Perth is a Full Moon, 98% lit. Treat this as lighting context, not a visibility forecast.
Use them only as map-search leads; they are not ranked recommendations. We have not verified current access, closures, permits, safety, or an unobstructed view. 255° WSW is the selected-date mathematical sunset bearing; if another composition faces elsewhere, use the bearing planner in the month table above to locate better-matched sampled months. The number is a planning aid and does not prove visibility.
In Perth, the evening golden hour window runs 49 min on the selected date and approaches from 255° WSW. Arrive 15 minutes before its start when that window occurs, then choose a position with an open view toward that bearing. Don't rely on the generic “one hour before sunset” rule here — the real window shifts with the season, so check the computed times for your date.
See the calculation method and limits before relying on the estimate in terrain-sensitive or safety-critical conditions.
